April 28, 20215 yr Another close one. Another loss. Unfortunately clinches a losing April for us. 😞 Here's to hoping Jazz isn't out long ...
April 28, 20215 yr When you give up a home run to the other team's pitcher like that, you deserve to lose
April 28, 20215 yr I saw this in a other article but I really don’t get why we didn’t give Anibal a try

April 28, 20215 yr Not crispy. This is tough - some great wins and some really bad losses. They are hanging in there but the injuries may really start to do them in.

Especially after the way Jazz looked in that fourth inning when he was double switched out, I hope he doesn't take this the wrong way. Donnie’s words and reaction tells me what I already knew, that Don didn’t even want to put Jazz into the full time lead-off spot and he’s still sore because that decision was dictated by the front office. He’s either: #1. Trolling, #2. Stupid or #3. Sore. I’m going to go with #3. Edited April 28, 20215 yr by FishFry
April 28, 20215 yr Don was asked, if Jazz were to be sidelined, how does that effect you offensively, defensively because he has been that spark plug? Mattingly “We just replace him (laughing) and move on”. Replace him with who? Devers or Isan? We can’t even pitch hit for a pitcher right now. One more injury and we are completely depleted. Jazz also stayed in there to score in that run and this is Don’s answer? What an ingrate. The true leaders on this team who keep it together is Miggy & Aguilar.

Though he probably could have used the moment to give Isan some motivational words. One of those "we have Isan Diaz and we know he's more than capable of the job and we're excited to see him out there", etc.
April 28, 20215 yr If Donnie said about Isan "..we're excited to see him out there", no one left would take him seriously again.

It's managerial speak and it's the right thing to do in that scenario and everyone knows that even if you don't like Isan. Remember last year in Atlanta when Monte was thrown out with a questionable aggressive baserunning mistake and Donnie totally backed him up even if it was a dumb move? Give me that managerial mindset any day of the week as opposed to guys like Jayce Tingler and Gabe Kapler who doubt and question their players to the media.
April 28, 20215 yr Here's the video of the quote... the point is you can't dwell on the injury, you bring in the next guy and you still "expect a winning team" no matter who is there. This organization has been preaching the importance of building depth and the "next man up" mentality and the idea that they can withstand injuries and still compete when the injuries come. It's not a knock on Jazz.

Well we currently have 1/3 of the lineup that's automatic outs. 1 hour ago, SilverBullet said: Here's the video of the quote... the point is you can't dwell on the injury, you bring in the next guy and you still "expect a winning team" no matter who is there.

It's not a knock on Jazz. Yeah, the actual video is completely different than the "static" quote in the tweet. His quote is "we replace him and move on" with a laugh because he knows you can't really replace him. As you point out, he's pointing out that you obviously don't want anyone hurt/out, but you have to roll with the punches, unfortunately.
